Reviews of Salon Diversions

Tenaya The Great

Came in for lashes and they did not disappoint. Best set I've ever had. She used a new technique/type of lash, Jen or Sam I believe. Thoroughly explained the process, very gentle, took her time, and was still quick and efficient Can't wait to be back for another set Light filter on the photo, LASHES, not affected. This was her work. AMAZING 🖤

Haidyn-lyn Conrad

Great service and friendly workers, i recommend you ask for carrie if you dying your hair fun colors. She loves doing fun colors, she did my hair and it turned out all some. This salon is very pretty and a good vibe to everyone. ❤

Elle

I wish I had found this salon sooner. Staff is great. The atmosphere is open and modern. Carrie is AMAZING. She cut my hair exactly the way I wanted it. Can't wait to go back.

They are all professionals and good at what they do. Kiki went above and beyond to get us scheduled and got us the right hair stylists and makeup artist to get us ready. They did great job!

First of all, highly recommend their tinsel hair extensions (more on this later). As a resident of the French Quarter, I'm so happy I found this salon. I was new to the city and Cara and Kendall made me feel immediately at home. Cara and Chandler are especially good at making all my hair dreams come true. I tell Cara if I want to channel Kacey Musgraves with blue tinsel hair extensions and she goes out of her way to make it happen. I can ask to look like Charli XCX, Lisa Barlow from Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Kate Chastain from Below Deck, even Elvira Mistress of the Dark and Cara and this team make it happen! And Kendall is great at scheduling me in with my weird hours. The tinsel extensions are relatively in expensive and come in so many cool colors. I get compliments on them wherever I go, even a little bit goes a long way.

Brittany Stone

Best Hair Salon I have been too!. I came in as a walk in and had the Best Experience! Chandler was my Hair stylist! He did a cut and Style!

Andrea Marshall

Went to NOLA for a wedding - made an appointment for an updo with Chris - it was outstanding ! From the greeting to the consultation to the finished result - perfect wedding hair - thank you ❤️

Meryl Sch

Amazing! They are super pro! I past by to ask for the price and ended up the day after having a haircut and a treatment. Everybody is super welcoming and kind. They don't push you to buy everything or something like that, which I highly appreciated! I am travelling but they treated me like I am going there every week! The guy who took care of me (I am so sorry I forgot his name) was super friendly and did an amazing job. Definitly recommend this salon!

Clayton Smith

Warning, do not get your hair done here without fully understanding what you're getting into. They did not choose the name Salon Diversions by accident. If you get your hair done here, prepare for a life full of diversions. You'll be as focused as ever, but those around you are going to have all their plans ruined. Every day will be full of diversions. People walking on the other side of the street will divert their paths towards you. Cars driving by will be distracted, crashing into Dat Dog locations. Airplanes will make emergency landings just to get a better look at your glorious hair. Not for the light-hearted, most people aren't ready for this amount of attention.

nicole glickman

I got my hair cut and colored here, and I loved the way it turned out! Jenn is super understanding, and she does an amazing job of listening to your needs. I will definitely be coming back here!

Derek Scott Graves

Hair artiste Chandler is the one to go to there! He gave me a smart refined style perfect for my various activities ✂️⚜️

Katerina Sutton

I've been a client of Cara at Salon Diversions for a few years now. I am always very satisfied and impressed with her knowledge and expertise. She always colors my hair perfectly and spends time before starting to know exactly what I want from the visit. I frequently am complimented on my color. I never believed in spending a lot on salon products and Cara always recommended but was never pushy to sell product . Once I tried the color conserve shampoo, i was hooked...my color stays much longer and my grays dont show for almost a whole month. All of the staff are required to continue education and it shows in their work. I hear about new methods before they become mainstream. The salon is very clean and comfortable. The front desk is very polite and always calls back when I leave a message. I recommend Cara and any other stylist at Salon Diversions.

Jennifer Mahoney

This is a super awesome salon with great stylists! Always professional, fun and know what they are doing. If you’re like me and want beautiful hair but don’t know how to get it - THEY DO!! Gabby is my girl, she takes her time and makes me feel great with her hair genius-ness!! You can’t go wrong with Salon Diversions, trust me!

D'Otta Sniezak

I have been going to Salon Diversions for at least two years now, and I just love it! The staff is so friendly and helpful — which can be challenging to find in the tourist-filled Quarter. I see Jenn regularly, and she is just THE BEST!!! She listens to how I want my hair cut, and she does a phenomenal job every time! I can’t say enough great things about this salon. I drive down there all the way from Uptown because I like Jenn so much.

jason ryan

Gabby is great! She was super inviting and friendly as soon as I walked into the salon. Asked me if I needed anything and made me feel very comfortable. My hair was a mess from a previous stylist from another salon who’s name I will not mention but needless to say I will continue to go back to Salon Diversions. Gabby works miracles and my look did a complete 180. Love love love it!!!!

PJ L

I absolutely love Salon Diversions! I have been coming here for almost 4 years now. My hairstylist is Jen and she is amazing! Great service, she goes above and beyond for her clients, and is also super-fun! I always recommend my friends to Jen and Salon Diversions and I look forward to my appointment every month!

Alan Rada

I started getting my haircut by Chris Varnado a few years ago in Baton Rouge where he was one of the city's most sought after stylists. He's so good that I make the effort to visit him at any salon that he's working at, and I'm not the only one! I'm always impressed by his skill, versatility, and consistency. From clean cut fades, to longer hairs styles, expert hair color ( he's dyed mine white, silver, pink, teal, blue, and red!), and even beard trims. I can count that Chris will listen to me and deliver what I want. Plus he's got a great fun personality to top it all off. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a professional next level haircut & color.

teresa stephens

Jen has been doing my hair weekly for a few years now. Everything from cut, color, blowouts and conditioning. She listens to me as to what I want to have done and does it perfectly. All the stylists are very knowledgeable about hair and just as sweet as they can be. I couldn't be happier.

Mallory Whitfield

I've been going to Salon Diversions for yearrrrrrrs now (probably at least since 2012), and as long as I live in New Orleans, I won't go anywhere else. Cara is a great stylist and the whole staff is friendly. I love the excuse to take a little adventure into the heart of the French Quarter, and once I'm inside the salon it's always a relaxing and enjoyable experience. They use Aveda products (which smell so good!) and I always get a nice scalp massage while having my hair washed before my haircut.

Alexandra Scott

After the person who cut my hair for 15 straight years died, I searched for 5 years to find someone as great. Cara at Salon Diversions is that person. I've gotten to hang w her a few times outside work, & she's a delight, but I can't say enough in praise of her cut, her color, her taste, her kind & positive energy, & her recommendations in products (also, she has fantastic taste in clothes, & her own hair is just a joy to behold). One of my best friends has her hair cut by Lorna (one chair down) & her hair has never looked better. Going here always feels like a treat: I get a nice walk through the Quarter & then I get to relax, laugh, & know that someone's going to make good hair decisions for me. It's been a stressful few years for pretty much the entire world. I can't recommend this experience enough.

Alina Hernandez

I went to Salon Diversions as an out-of-town client for my wedding. Gabby (Gabrielle) did my updo. Earlier in the week, she lightened my hair some so that there would be some brightness in my hair. She also did my makeup. I thought she had a terrific eye for color, and left my hair just beautiful. She had a great deal of patience the day of the wedding since we did my hair twice, because you never know how the look you want will actually look on you. In the end, she really worked with what I was looking for and added a lot of her own suggestions, which were helpful and honest, and I appreciated that. Her makeup was flawless. It lasted well into the night and then some. I was sooo pleased and happy. I want to offer up a shout-out too to stylist Cara who did my 11-year-old daughter's hair as well as our little cousin's, who is 7 and was our flower girl. She had so much fun with those two giggly girls, and they had fun with her. It takes a special person to work with kids, and they loved their grown up hair. Thank you both for making our special day so much fun. Thank you for making us all so pretty! (I added the only photo I have that shows the hair...hope this helps)

Angela Bennett

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. The stylists make me feel like I am the most important person when I am there. Especially Cara, she is the best and has been my stylist for over 20 years.

Rezzlean

It took me 32 years to find someone that could handle my insanely thick curly hair. Andrea Is amazing! The entire staff is friendly and the whole experience was great! I would and do recommend Salon Diversions to everyone i know.

Rosanna Soto

This salon is fabulous! If you want to feel welcomed the minute you walk in and leave loving your hair, check them out. It’s no surprise that when initially looking for a salon, Salon Diversions was frequently recommended. Gabby is a hair wiz, always getting my balayage just right. She is the bomb with extensions too! Questions are ALWAYS answered and she is so patient when explaining how to keep your hair looking awesome.

cassandra erb

I absolutely love salon diversions. At the front desk, NaN is amazing. Emily Hines is my stylist and has guided me through my beauty journey with expertise and passion. I like to change my style and keep my hair butter blond. Emily has it on lock.

Jeffrey Notarianni

One of the best haircuts I've ever had! My stylist, Stasia Rinaldi, was the perfect combination of artistic exuberance and absolute professionalism. If you're in town for a special event, or are just looking for a unique salon experience while you're here, I highly recommend Stasia at Salon Diversions. Her work rivals anything I've found in New York or L.A., yet she adds a funky twist to the experience that is uniquely New Orleans.

Lisa Kittredge

Love this place - Cara is my stylist and I miss here when I'm out of town! All the people there are wonderful though - had my wedding party in there for many up-dos and everyone looked amazing! Highly recommend.

Julia Widmann

Easily the best place to have your hair done in the city of New Orleans. I've been a client for more than five years and I know that whenever I step foot in the salon, I'll come out two hours later with a spring in my step and looking perfectly polished up. It's a relaxing and airy spot that never feels fussy plus it's filled with all of those ahhhmazing Aveda smells. Curl up in the chair with a glass of the house vino and you won't regret taking the time for some pampering!

Michelle White

Salon Diversions is the best salon in the French Quarter. Everyone is super talented, creative, and friendly. Hands down the most convenient FQ location right on Royal. In addition to great color and cuts (thanks, Jenn), they do extensions, event hair, and makeup!

Sarah “sc” Celano

I will never go to another salon again! I’ve been seeing Gabby for years and am always thrilled with how my hair comes out. Both color and cut are AMAZING !!

Whitney Hartson

I was paired with Emily Campbell in Feb 2019 when I called in for a last minute transformation - I needed something done to this hair and not knowing who I was seeing, I showed up and this Emily girl showed out! Just a match made in heaven! :) Emily's sweet presence, bad assery behind the chair had me hooked. I can't thank her enough for being truthful and honest, allowing me to make decisions - but her honesty saved me from unknowingly rocking a mullet - for that I am thankful! Thank you Emily for always DELIVERING! You're the best. ;)

The day before we had to fly to NO for a wedding, my wife decided to change her hair color. She was tired to being so BLONDE and wanted something "a little different." Disaster. Her salon here in Virginia made her look gray! She came home in tears. While she packed for the trip, I researched salons in New Orleans and suggested Salon Diversions. Success! Regan repaired the disaster and my wife now loves her new look! She wants to fly to New Orleans every three months, just so Regan can do her hair! At half the price we are paying here, that would almost pay for the airfare.

B Shaman

Awesome! How great is this place? I only live in NO part/time now, but I schedule my trips back to coincide with hair cuts. They're that good here. Especially Cara. She is a 12 on a 5 star scale!

Emma Nahaylo

Awesome French Quarter Salon with a cool friendly vibe and talented stylists with the added touch of specializing in tape-in extensions :)) Always walk out feeling fabulous thanks to my girl Jen! Highly recommended !!

Kristen McCann

I’ve been going to Gabby for years. She’s seriously the best in the city! Everyone at the salon is always so nice and friendly. Would 10/10 recommend this salon to anyone!

Katherine Prato

I’ve been going there for over 2 years now and there is nowhere else I ever want to go!!! Gabi does an amazing job with my color and cut! I love her and couldn’t be happier ♥️

Ashley Dunning

Love it!! Only place I go to get my hair cut!!

Levi Stewart Figueroa

I have been going to Salon D since 2006-ish. I moved in 2010, but make an appointment the moment I know i'm going to be back in town. Cara is absolutely fantastic!

Lee Barton

Cara Jones is the best colorist/stylist! Everyone at this salon is professional, personable and fun. Highly recommend this salon.

Audrey C. Wallace

Since my first appointment a couple years ago, I won't let anyone but Cara cut my hair. She's definitely the best!

Studio Vieux Carre

Comfortable, casual, relaxing experience at Salon Diversions. Cara is always on time and personable. My color and cut is exactly how I expected it to be .. perfect.

Jessica Crum

William Norris

For six years Cara has kept me looking quite stylish from my business casual period to the current bohemian. A great shop in a great location with quite pleasant atmosphere.
